Bug 120054 – gnustep-apps/cynthiune-0.9.4 USE-flags doesn't work as they should, and other problems...

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jouni Rinne 2006-01-23 07:42:40 UTC]

I'm trying to install gnustep-apps/cynthiune-0.9.4.

First, there is an unlisted dependency of media-libs/audiofile, Cynthiune doesn't compile without it.

Second, the USE-flags doesn't work as they should. For example, I don't have media-sound/esound installed on the machine I'm working on, so the corresponding USE-flag is set to "-esd". However, the compilation stops with the following error:

!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

I.e. the script looks for esd-config, although it shouldn't, because USE="-esd"  is set.

If Cynthiune really needs all the dependencies to compile, they should NOT be marked as optional (via the USE-flags). Please, make a proper ebuild

Well, I fixed the ebuild myself ;) Here's a patch and a complete ebuild. I haven't got much experience on making these ebuilds, hopefully this one is correct. At least it worked...

Jouni,

Thanks, I took over your changes.  Indeed the USE-flags looked somewhat daft since they weren't handled in any way.
